You may be able to get them as free samples. Coleman and others make entire
refrigerators out of these things.

Keep cool,

Amen!

Am I understanding this right? A Peltier chip that can achieve a 130 +
degree delta-T?? What's the catch, only the USAF can afford them???

It's worth a phone call to find out, anyway. Plugging in these numbers
results in a very nice installation... efficient and compact.

Thanks Bob C!

Most Trouble free refrigeration?

I am assembling a refrigeration system and am interested in what other
folks have & have not found troublesome.

Thanks in advance.


I've always felt engine-driven refrigeration is superior, but our boat came
with a 12V Adler-Barber. Bottom line: our friends with engine-driven
compressors have had numerous problems, while we have had absolutely none.
The 12V compressor is quiet to the point of only hearing it when it runs at
night and I'm wide awake listening to the carp roll and thump against the
boat. Our friends have ****ed off others in quiet anchorages with their
nightly fridge recharge (engine run).

Strictly anecdotal, and not an endorsement of DC refrigeration.

Any reason why? I feel that it's superior if one assumes 1960s level of
technology.

Hmm, it sure sounded like one. Thanks a lot for the info... I have
already spec'd & priced a system using Adler-Barbour components and that
is certainly a strong contender.

Thank you again-

Why should anyone give advice to a liar such as you?
